City Pop TOKYO, an NFT project inspired by the Japanese music genre "City Pop," which is immensely popular overseas and amongst Gen Z, has now decided to collaborate with FRUITS ZIPPER, a very popular idol group from ASOBISYSTEM. This collaboration with FRUITS ZIPPER will celebrate the release of the City Pop TOKYO’s main collection, which will go on sale April 26, 2023. City Pop TOKYO is a project that allows both NFT holders and non-holders to participate in character development through Twitter posts after the main NFT collection has been sold. Characters will level up according to the training points they earn when they are posted on Twitter, which will also be reflected in their NFT attributes. Their rankings will be based on levels, and whoever gets the most votes will debut their music.
For this collaboration, FRUITS ZIPPER, an established entertainment group from ASOBISYSTEM, will join City Pop TOKYO to bring excitement to the project. City Pop TOKYO will also support the activities of FRUITS ZIPPER.
Seven FRUITS ZIPPER member NFTs will join the "City Pop TOKYO" collection as "Legendary NFTs". Each “Legendary NFT" was created by Natsumi Sato, illustrator of "City Pop TOKYO", and each is a special edition with unique characteristics. Unlike regular collections, "Legendary NFTs" will be sold in an auction format. The following is a draft of the NFT design. Illustrations will be colored and available for purchase as NFT.
*Legendary NFT will not participate in the training game or audition.
*Please note that the image and design of the character may be used by the members in the activities of Fruits Zipper.
